Huawei Watch 2 Review: In Depth

The Watch 2 packs all of the hardware features you'd expect from a modern premium smartwatch, backed by Google's ever-evolving and increasingly effective Android Wear OS. The standard strap might be a bit cheap and ugly, but that's easily fixed and the overall design is chunky but lovable.

Huawei Watch 2 review

The Huawei Watch 2 is the sort of watch we should probably have seen a year after Android Wear appeared, not three years. But that’s a knock on Google as much as Huawei. It’s not as pretty as the original Huawei Watch or the LG Watch Style, and that matters when any watch choice is a style choice. It has an awful lot of features, including GPS, NFC and an HR sensor. But some of them don’t work as well as they should. GPS reliability is the stinger, with tracking fidelity much worse than that of a good phone. Or, this watch’s most important rival, the Apple Watch 2. Flaky GPS and heart rate readings aside, the Watch 2 has the basics down, including decent battery life, a sharp screen and as solid performance as can be expected from a smartwatch. Now you just have to ask yourself whether that’s worth £300 of your cash.
